The Delfzijl project is being developed by DeltaNor B.V., a full subsidiary of Perpetual Next. It is dedicated to the construction, financing, maintenance and operation of a biomethanol plant in Farmsum, which will have a production capacity of 220,000 tons per year. Perpetual Next is developing the plant as part of its broader ambition to accelerate circular, low-carbon industrial solutions by converting biogenic carbon streams into sustainable products, including biomethanol.

Reliable storage & outbound logistics
The current MoU between both parties outlines their intention to negotiate a definitive storage agreement for the Delfzijl project, with target capacity in the range of 21,000 to 35,000 gross m³, depending on the final configuration. The envisaged logistics concept is based on inbound pipeline and outbound barge movements through dedicated lines, with truck loading and unloading available as a back-up scenario.
Anthony Mayle, Head of Business Development Perpetual Next: “Selecting JPB Logistics as our intended storage and handling partner is an important milestone in the ongoing development of our Delfzijl biomethanol facility. Reliable storage and outbound logistics are essential to building a robust and bankable value chain and we look forward to move forward with this important collaboration.”
Patrick Trakzel, CEO of JPB Logistics B.V.: “We are pleased to work with Perpetual Next on the envisaged storage and handling solution for the Delfzijl project. With our terminal and jetty infrastructure in Farmsum, we believe we can support the safe and efficient logistics needed for a project of this scale.”
The proposed collaboration is subject to conditions including Perpetual Next’s final investment decision for the Delfzijl project, the successful execution of the project and agreement on final commercial terms.
